First Day of Shooting

 First Day of Shooting

The day finally came when I was able to begin filming. This honestly feels like a huge weight lifted on my shoulders as I have been struggling to start filming with the actors as they are always busy. As previously stated I ordered a picnic basket and fake knife to add to the realism of the opening scene. It honestly feels so surreal that I was able to turn my vision into a reality. Each scene was about thirty seconds long and I was able to film three scenes so I am partly done with my opening scene it is just the initial scene that I have yet to complete. The hardest part was mainly my tripod as the remote for the tripod would not zoom in. Also instead of using a duffle bag, I used a black garbage bag as it was easier to dispose of if in the scene. Also, I was not planning on keeping any of the props used in the opening scene so I didn't think that it made sense to keep it. I began filming at approximately 5: 45 and stopped at around 7:00. This filming day was unsuccessful as both actors arrived late which caused us to begin to film late. This only gave the actors approxiemntally half an hour to film as the sun was going to set. Hopefully, we are more successful the next time filming and the actors arrive on time.
